Stepping out from her hiding place, Andromeda's silhouette resembled that of a raven of death under the dim light and when she stopped in front of a luxury sedan, effectively blocking Victoria's path, she swept a menacing glance around before settling it on them with stern piercing eyes.
There was an inscrutable expression on her face, one that Victoria couldn't quite understand. Nevertheless, seeing her here, alone unscathed, she knew something was definitely wrong.
Immediately, her heart pounded loudly in her chest as Andromeda's gaze met hers. She couldn't shake off the feeling of triumph that radiated from her eyes. It only worsened things in the end.
